Awards Reception: A BBQ has been organized by the small business community of �The Cove� immediately following the awards. Excellent food also available at the pub & restaurant.
Special Notes: This leg is voted the most likely not to finish but the scenery is awesome and takes you past Robson Bight the famous killer whale rubbing beach.
For those interested in whales and whale bones Jim Borrowman, of Stubbs Island Whale Watching, is a wealth of knowledge and has a whale interpretation center, nicknamed the �Bones Project� on the boardwalk here.
